Named “A School for a Sustainable City,” MELS is located in Forest Hills, Queens, and serves students in grades 6-12.
By using New York City as an extension of the classroom, students learn that sustainability means meeting current needs without compromising future generations. Through authentic, project-based learning expeditions in all disciplines, as well as experiences in science and technology, MELS students become critical thinkers who gather information, carefully weigh their options, and make informed, thoughtful choices that effect change.
MELS graduates are prepared for success in college through demanding coursework and real-world fieldwork experiences with leaders in the sustainability movement. They possess an understanding of not only the challenges faced by their generation, but also of the innovative approaches to solutions in the fields of architecture, science, urban planning and technology.
